During studies of arthropod succession on pig carrion in Western Poland, several specimens of Chrysomya albiceps were collected. This is the first record of the genus Chrysomya in Poland and the northernmost site of this forensically important blowfly in Europe. Morphological features useful for identification of adults and third-instar larvae of Ch. albiceps are presented. The occurrence of Ch. albiceps in Poland is discussed according to its temperature requirements.
